A great conversation with author Robert Stewart about his new book, No Greater Duty, and the lives of the central characters that intersect at the US Naval Academy and explore Mid-life and life in the Fleet and Marine Corps.

Staying on Mission
My goal is to support, equip, and empower USNA parents with strength, knowledge, and wisdom to navigate this unique journey successfully. MidMoms and MidDads are a different breed: we stick together, we are resilient, we are faithful, we are not strangers but are lifelong friends - even if we have never met. We will always share the lifelong bond of our Mid's journey and, of course, like our Mids, we Never Give Up the Ship!
